Strengths
- “They swiftly follow the ‘Avanti way’.”
- “From the very start, pupils develop the deep consideration for others, self-reflection and kind relationships that are at the heart of this school.”
- “Pupils appreciate the diversity within the school community.”
To improve
- “In a few subjects and classes, adults are developing their teaching expertise and pupils do not demonstrate their new learning as effectively.”
- “However, while many pupils are getting the right help, the school’s systems to ensure that this is consistently in place and effective are not well developed.”
- “As a result, support for some pupils is less effective.”
